    Drosophila gustatory projections are segregated by taste modality and connectivity

    Stefanie Engert, Gabriella R Sterne ... Kristin Scott
    Anatomical and synaptic reconstructions of gustatory axons from the adult Drosophila labellum reveal different classes of gustatory neurons recognizing different taste modalities.

    Semiochemical responsive olfactory sensory neurons are sexually dimorphic and plastic

    Aashutosh Vihani, Xiaoyang Serene Hu ... Hiroaki Matsunami
    Semiochemicals activate a subpopulation of sexually dimorphic olfactory sensory neurons.

    Taste sensing and sugar detection mechanisms in Drosophila larval primary taste center

    G Larisa Maier, Nikita Komarov ... Simon G Sprecher
    Drosophila larvae show taste multimodality and combinatorial sensing at gustatory organ level but also systemically as they employ complementary external and internal taste in sugar detection.

    C. elegans avoids toxin-producing Streptomyces using a seven transmembrane domain chemosensory receptor

    Alan Tran, Angelina Tang ... Miri K VanHoven
    Caenorhabditis elegans require a GPCR to recognize and rapidly escape from toxin-producing Streptomyces at their head or tail.

    Principles for coding associative memories in a compact neural network

    Christian Pritz, Eyal Itskovits ... Alon Zaslaver
    A compact neural network can form various associative memories that are encoded in a distributed manner, where each neuron stores different components of the memory.

    Loss of Atoh1 from neurons regulating hypoxic and hypercapnic chemoresponses causes neonatal respiratory failure in mice

    Meike E van der Heijden, Huda Y Zoghbi
    Atoh1 promotes the development of two different neural circuits involved in hypoxic and hypercapnic respiratory responses that together are essential for neonatal respiratory drive and survival.

    Synaptic transmission parallels neuromodulation in a central food-intake circuit

    Philipp Schlegel, Michael J Texada ... Michael J Pankratz
    Connectomic analysis demonstrates that a brain circuit, that may be conserved between flies and mammals, uses both fast synaptic transmission as well as peptidergic neuromodulation to connect chemosensory and endocrine systems.

    Excitation and inhibition onto central courtship neurons biases Drosophila mate choice

    Benjamin R Kallman, Heesoo Kim, Kristin Scott
    Pheromones activate excitatory and inhibitory pathways that are integrated to guide mating decisions in Drosophila melanogaster.
    1. Neuroscience

    P1 interneurons promote a persistent internal state that enhances inter-male aggression in Drosophila

    Eric D Hoopfer, Yonil Jung ... David J Anderson
    A sexually dimorphic circuit node controls a persistent, internal state that promotes fighting and mating in Drosophila, revealing parallels with mammalian systems suggestive of a conserved circuit "motif" controlling social behaviors.

    Deciphering the chemical language of inbred and wild mouse conspecific scents

    Maximilian Nagel, Marco Niestroj ... Marc Spehr
    Parallel chemical and physiological profiling of conspecific chemosensory communication in mice identifies both common and unique strategies for vomeronasal signaling of sex and strain.
